Around the world, researchers are working extremely hard to develop new treatments and interventions for COVID-19 with new clinical trials opening nearly every day. This directory provides you with information, including enrollment detail, about these trials. In some cases, researchers are able to offer expanded access (sometimes called compassionate use) to an investigational drug when a patient cannot participate in a clinical trial.
The information provided here is drawn from ClinicalTrials.gov. If you do not find a satisfactory expanded access program here, please search in our COVID Company Directory. Some companies consider expanded access requests for single patients, even if they do not show an active expanded access listing in this database. Please contact the company directly to explore the possibility of expanded access.
Emergency INDs
To learn how to apply for expanded access, please visit our Guides designed to walk healthcare providers, patients and/or caregivers through the process of applying for expanded access. Please note that given the situation with COVID-19 and the need to move as fast as possible, many physicians are requesting expanded access for emergency use. In these cases, FDA will authorize treatment by telephone and treatment can start immediately. For more details, consult FDA guidance. Emergency IND is the common route that patients are receiving convalescent plasma.
Search Tips
To search this directory, simply type a drug name, condition, company name, location, or other term of your choice into the search bar and click SEARCH. For broadest results, type the terms without quotation marks; to narrow your search to an exact match, put your terms in quotation marks (e.g., “acute respiratory distress syndrome” or “ARDS”). You may opt to further streamline your search by using the Status of the study and Intervention Type options. Simply click one or more of those boxes to refine your search.

In this study, the effectiveness of the Dornase Alpha treatment, which is known to reduce the viscosity of respiratory secretions, will be investigated in new diagnosed and severe COVID-19 patients separately.

COVID-19 virus remains in infected patients for extended periods of time. A great resource burden is placed on the healthcare system and society at large to isolate COVID-19 patients for prolonged periods. Thus, being able to increase the rate of viral clearance, thus reducing the duration of COVID-19 infection, would allow patients to be discharged earlier to free up resources for those who require it. The investigators designed a randomized controlled trial, investigating the use of Lianhua Qingwen, a TCM treatment, in COVID-19 infected patients with mild symptoms. The investigators hypothesize that the use of Lianhua Qingwen will increase the proportion of patients who test negative for COVID-19 after 8 days of TCM treatment when compared to the group of patients provided with standard care and placebo. Patients will be recruited from community isolation facilities, and have onset of symptoms within 5 days prior to admission to the isolation facility. The trial also evaluates the time taken for relief of clinical symptoms associated with COVID-19 and assesses the safety of the TCM treatment given to patients.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the investigational product, SBI-101, in subjects with an infectious etiology of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). SBI-101 is a biologic/device combination product designed to regulate inflammation and promote repair of injured tissue using allogeneic human mesenchymal stromal cells. SBI-101 will be integrated into the renal replacement circuit and patients will be treated for up to 24 hours.

Since the 1960s, studies have shown that oral polio vaccine (OPV) may have beneficial non-specific effects, reducing morbidity and mortality from other infections than polio. Such beneficial non-specific effect have been observed for other live vaccines, including measles, smallpox and BCG vaccine. For BCG, the vaccine for which the mechanism has been studied the most, the effects appear to be mediated through the innate immune system. The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has now caused over 7.1 million cases and >400,000 deaths worldwide. As everywhere else, it is anticipated that in Africa the older part of the population will be at risk of severe COVID-19. OPV is widely used in Africa, but for children. Both polio and coronavirus are positive-strand RNA viruses, therefore it is likely that they may induce and be affected by common innate immune mechanisms. In a randomised trial at the Bandim Health Project in Guinea-Bissau, the investigators will assess the effect of providing OPV vs no vaccine to 3400 persons above 50 years of age. The trial will have the power to test the hypothesis that OPV reduces the combined risk of morbidity admission or death (composite outcome) by at least 28% over the subsequent 6 months.

A Phase I/II, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, individually randomized trial to assess safety, immunogenicity and efficacy of the candidate Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccine ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 in adults aged 18-65 years living with and without HIV in South Africa. The vaccine or placebo will be administered via an intramuscular injection into the deltoid muscle of the non-dominant arm.

Since the outbreak of coronavirusdisease2019(COVID-19), many researchers in China have carried out/published clinical trials on treatment based on Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine or a combination of the two. Trials on treatment modalities have mainly used antivirals, interferon, glucocorticoids in addition to traditional Chinese medicine. There are also clinical trials exploring hydroxyquinoline/chloroquine sulphate, immunoglobulins, Vitamin-C, washed microbiota, nebulized interferon, teicoplanin as well as Mesenchymal stem cells. However, most of these trials were small (median sample size 100) and the bulk of potential therapeutic strategies remain in the experimental phase and currently there is no effective specific antiviral with high-level evidence.The aim of this study is assess the efficacy of MSCs as an add-on therapy to standard supportive treatment for patients with moderate/severe COVID-19.

COVID 19 which started from a zoonotic transmission related to crowded markets was confirmed to have a high potential for transmission to close contacts on 20 January 2020 by the National Health Commission of China and it was announced as a pandemic by the WHO on 11 March 2020. There is currently no clinically proven specific antiviral agent available for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Supportive treatment, including oxygen therapy, conservation fluid management, and broad-spectrum antibiotics to cover secondary bacterial infection, remains the most important management strategy. Interestingly, sofosbuvir has recently been proposed as an antiviral for the SARS-CoV-2 based on the similarity between the replication mechanisms of the HCV and the coronaviruses. Aim of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of of the addition of HCV treatment to the standard regimen for the treatment of patients who are candidates to receive Hydroxy Chloroquine according to Egyptian MOHP protocol
